How Can Indigestion And Flatulence Be Treated?

I eat healthy, exercise and sleep well. But I am having semi solid stool , sometimes paste like stool. But I get solid stool 1 or 2 times a week. The rest days paste like stool. I have noticed that the day when I fart more next day I have paste like stool. I am unable to digest dairy products so I avoid them and rajma also causes this type of stool and excess farts. I eat good but I am unable to gain weight. Sometimes I have black out. I have VELGUT capsules which helps in solid stool. But the day I stop it i start experiencing the same symptoms again. please help!

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

To overcome your symptoms of indigestion and flatulence, kindly do the following:

1. Restrict your intake of proteins in the form of cereals and pulses.
2. Take more fibre rich foods like green leafy vegetables and vegetable salads.
3. Consume fruits like apple or banana regularly.
4. Take probiotics and Lactobacillus medications regularly.
5. Drink good quantity of water and improve your intake of fluids.
6. Avoid intake of spicy foods and alcohol.

Gradually, your symptoms should subside and you should feel better.

Hope I have answered your query.
